We had some Roses the other week .Not a patch on the old version .Limited selection and also sealed packet wrappings so they look bigger instead of the twist seals .Won't be buying again and the taste of the chocolate has deteriorated in recent years too.But a good find ,the Heroes aren't too bad .

I predict by Christmas 2030 these tubs will be £1 each and smaller than a bag of malteasers

Thanks worth actually putting in the op so people can see. Ps how do you …Thanks worth actually putting in the op so people can see. Ps how do you know they are going to be on offer?

You get what you pay for when it comes to chocolate pretty much like most things out there... Rubbish is harsh, I personally don't mind it... Sure its not a patch on chocolate 2 or 3 times the price.. But that's like pretty much all food imo

Ahh, nothing marks the start of Autumn and the impending miserable, long, cold winter better than tubs of chocolate deals. This reminds me that this year I'm going to actually make a noose, not just think about it.

You miss the point! Cadbury's never was 'great' chocolate but it was good and reasonably priced. Kraft/Mondelez bought it and changed the recipe and now it's not good (nor is it cheaper). They trade on the brand name. Most/all of it isn't even made in the UK now.

Taste is a matter of opinion. I personally think it's alright. Bit like some people moan about the Cadbury creme egg, again I think it's alright and personally can't tell the difference between the new taste and each to their own. As for made abroad. That's part of the cost of keeping things at a price point that we the consumer demand

How much smaller are they this year? Getting harder to justify these …How much smaller are they this year? Getting harder to justify these being sold in ‘tubs’.

I think you just get 3 sweets in a tub now..

Its too bloomin soon for chrimbo stuff, only just into Autumn, the Cadburys stuff is rubbish. Quality St is probably the one that hasn’t downgraded as much on taste. Last year there were pouches of Thornton’s but they were almost as bad as Roses.I was in Iceland the other day and they are selling Mince Pies, in September flamin crazy

People moan about shrinkflation. They forget the price of raw ingredients such as coco has rocketed. Other option manufacturers have is keep amount you get the same but put price up... Time and time again studies have shown more people are price sensitive more than they are quantity in pack sensitive.... These companies aren't charities their shareholders demand returns on their investments

Fab find for your first scorching hot deal @twt2018

Why wait until the Christmas chocolate tub clear out at all superstores in Jan, when you can get them now, for 50p less than they have ever been in the Sales for one tub!!!
